well i think i got my ZYX programed right and everything set right i guess if i get a day where its in positive digits for temps i will try to see if it stacks itself or if it flies! im a little nervous about making a maiden flight with the new electronics..

Training gear can offer some protection for those potential maiden mishaps...

another quick question is should i flip the main blade grips to get leading edge control? this is the way it should be done right? will trailing edge control cause issues?

The LE vs TE control debate is as old as FB vs FBL. My opinion is to set up the heli mechanics per the manual and then set up the gyro such the everything responds properly to stick inputs and compensation.

Older actually. I prefer LE but in reality with today's heli's it probably doesn't matter (much). Good advice about the manual.
